Two-stage preparation of highly mesoporous carbon for super-adsorption of paracetamol and tetracycline in water: Important contribution of pore filling and π-π interaction.

This study aimed to develop an extremely highly porous activated carbon derived from soybean curd residues (SCB-AC) through two-step pyrolyzing coupled with KOH activating process and then apply it for removing paracetamol (PRC) and tetracycline (TCH) from water. The optimal conditions for chemical activation were 800 °C and the ratio of KOH to material (4/1; wt./wt.

Ameloblastic Carcinoma in a 2-Year-Old Child: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is a rare malignant odontogenic tumor in pediatric patients, only 22 cases have been reported in literature since 1932. We present an extremely rare case in which AC occurred in a 2-year-old girl, who had a tumor in the right mandible. Radiographic findings showed a multilocular, poorly defined, and mixed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion in the region of teeth #84 to #85, with bone and tooth root resorption.

Novel Framework Based on HOSVD for Ski Goggles Defect Detection and Classification.

No matter your experience level or budget, there is a great ski goggle waiting to be found.Goggles are an essential part of skiing or snowboarding gear to protect your eyes from harsh environmental elements and injury. In the ski goggles manufacturing industry, defects, especially on the lens surface, are unavoidable.

Entropy-Based Clustering Algorithm for Fingerprint Singular Point Detection.

Fingerprints have long been used in automated fingerprint identification or verification systems. Singular points (SPs), namely the core and delta point, are the basic features widely used for fingerprint registration, orientation field estimation, and fingerprint classification. In this study, we propose an adaptive method to detect SPs in a fingerprint image.
